83 Bennett Road, Strathdickie, QLD, 4800, Australia

Inspiration for all the art pieces lovingly created over the years has been cultivated at this very home, with an art studio and separate sculpture studio. Set on 5 acres that have been rewilded with trees indigenous to the Whitsundays, a haven has been created for native animals, birds and butterflies. This oasis is often referred to as the "healing garden" because of its serene ambience and meditative calmness. Set on the hilltop with excellent drainage, a set of stone steps lead you to a lawn terrace affectionately named "the stage" with views through the tree trunks to the patchwork of sugar cane paddocks below. Admire the garden spaces that have been accentuated with rocks and the masterpiece of stone walkways and stairs that lead you to Myrtle Creek, plush full of water all year long and lined with Alexander Palms, Silver Quandongs and Leichhardts.
The main home is like a pavilion with its high roof line and individual rooms yet in an open setting. A rustic, welcoming residence with front and rear verandahs and a Breezway let you sit outside and take in life at the pace it should be. Built in the days when bathrooms were outhouses with wholesome natural and creative finishes. Additionally, the separate art studio which doubles as guest accommodation with its own kitchenette and bathroom, has great space and light with the recently built sunroom that is fully enclosed and screened. For those who value their shed space but also an awesome view, venture down to the sculpture studio where many iconic works have been created and anything heavy can be placed under roof with a 1 tonne Chain Block. A stone room sits below for extra storage, plus a carport at the house will keep you dry when you arrive on wet days. This home will be adored by those who love art, nature and an exquisite location.
